Why You Shouldn't Become A Software Engineer
so you alienated all of your subscribers with one
he said yeah pretty much what was the point
six abbott allies
so i've known to
we're in a lot of people who follow this channel want to get to software engineer i wanted to why i realize it a lot of people
an students have been inspired by a lot of the content on this channel which is amazing but i've got to be real with you come closer at the cult software engineering as a career isn't for
true but i don't mean that in a gatekeeper the way like what i do is so hard not everybody can be like me i just mean that
everything isn't for everyone forever i'm not even the software engineer right now the teach
so i mean a whole video about this like three months ago so are you know the teeth it was too hot
i'm not trying to rocket he bodies world here i just think the hype train has gotten a little out of hand and i had a just want to bring expectations back
and before i get into the smell i'll give my usual disclaimer everybody situation is different bush to sit here and preach from
as soapboxes if i have all the answers i don't to take my words and everyone else is for that matter with a green of all
well only you can prevent for his fires have can you tell have my copy today only you know you're situation so with that out of the way here some reasons you may be don't want to become a software engineer first and this one kind of dumb just by
by being associated with computers at all everyone's going to ask you tech support
patients your go with computers i was watching if you fix my print
look and we know how to do is sort alice the numbers and python and i'm not sure have that thing
now who but one over my head anyway i think it's something with the in cartridge is and suddenly everybody you know as an entrepreneur with a million dollar at idea in
the trust them it's going to be a success all they need is for somebody to do literally all of the work you know
in idea for the next facebook but it's going to be ten times more popular addicted to somebody to
hold it you when you know a third of the earth's population is on facebook great at the very least earth would need like three times more people for to even
when possible it's facebook but in space what does that even me just think
how big it we get but man just
let me out of the car i'm going to going to work and moving on
this is a big one people define themselves by being a member of this elite club
programmers pro tip whenever you see people defining themselves by one thing that culture is going to be toxic sadly leave this
ones with video games you play games on your mobile device you're not a true gamer true gamers like me play games on these birds are angry
gamer
i have no desired be gamer i just want to pass time when the train poser intact prepared to have your validity check for every little aspect of your technical identity like your programming language of choice
they say well you code in python true programmers good
and see plus plays she was lessons for mellon's really real programmers code and
the sea that's cute the realist programmers code machine
he could have have real machines program humans we know nothing golden how about the
writing system you use is that have back
he wrote programmers is linux do just put on a fake glasses
maybe i just imagine that anyway means of friends are going to believe
for an eight you know it doesn't work on my computer but you want to come or this we can end install large linux from scratch
no i
little control over my graphical showing windowing system of it the one
think i can control as my friends even your keyboard isn't say come on you use the chicken keyboard on your math
back yeah it's literally attached to my laptop excuses excuses i use a mechanical you ward cool
what can you do that all kinds of things i could make more noise
so where i work on features that millions of users of used i went to a get school i have received a words
and scholarships and still there are people on the internet that will tell me that i'm not a real programmer or that all of
my achievements or because of affirmative action or something
it gets all and people wonder were imposter syndrome comes from so yet
it's not always the most accommodating culture on the right side there are wonderful companies and organizations that don't
you have these behaviors so trying to work at those of you can but
once you're working engineer even in a supportive organization there's no gaining keys that you'll be working on the stuff that you want to be working on some fields of engineering can be hard
her to get into and business needs change rapidly so you probably won't have complete agency and what you work on which is
defined by the way it makes sense [NOISE] so this one is going to be hard to empathize with and i felt don't even saying it but all of the flashy perks that you see in the tech industry like the free food in the
[SMACK] tables and all that stuff have business value for the company
in perfect that are designed to keep you in the office longer or to make you dependent on your workplace also
